Monomeric C-reactive protein is associated with severity and prognosis of decompensated hepatitis B cirrhosis [PDF]
C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute-phase protein produced by the liver in response to infection and during chronic inflammatory disorders. Systemic inflammation is a major driver of cirrhosis progression from the compensated to the decompensated stage.

C-reactive protein-complement factor H axis as a biomarker of activity in early and intermediate age-related macular degeneration [PDF]
PurposeTo determine and compare the serum levels of complement Factor H (FH), monomeric C-Reactive Protein (mCRP) and pentameric C-Reactive protein (pCRP) in patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and to correlate them with clinical ...

Pancreatic cancer-related pain: mechanism and management
Pancreatic cancer-related pain (PCRP) gains widespread attention for its high prevalence, extreme complexity, poor prognosis, and decreased survival rate. Current treatment of PCRP remains unsatisfactory since the underlying mechanism is not clear.

Exploring the consequences of pairing algorithms for binary stars [PDF]
Knowledge of the binary population in stellar groupings provides important information about the outcome of the star forming process in different environments (see, e.g., Blaauw 1991, and references therein).

In vitro generation and bioactivity evaluation of C-reactive protein intermediate. [PDF]
The conformational conversion of pentameric C-reactive protein (pCRP) to monomeric CRP (mCRP) has been shown to play important roles in the action of CRP in inflammation regulation.

C-Reactive Protein in Atherosclerosis—More than a Biomarker, but not Just a Culprit
C-reactive protein (CRP) is a pentraxin that is mainly synthesized in the liver in response to inflammatory cytokines. It exists in two functionally and structurally distinct isoforms.

C‐reactive protein (CRP) is an early‐stage acute phase protein and highly upregulated in response to inflammatory reactions. We recently identified a novel mechanism that leads to a conformational change from the native, functionally relatively inert ...

Complement factor H binding of monomeric C-reactive protein downregulates proinflammatory activity and is impaired with at risk polymorphic CFH variants [PDF]
Inflammation and immune-mediated processes are pivotal to the pathogenic progression of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Although plasma levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) have been shown to be associated with an increased risk for AMD, the ...
